First pass visualizations of VL cases in Brazil
Check distribution, look for weird outliers
The numbers in the upper right of each panel show the total number of cases
Yearly and monthly trends
Individual faded black lines show individual municipalities. The solid red line shows the sum across all municipalities, while the blue line shows the average number of cases across municipalities

Look at both month and year trends simultaneously in a heatmap to look for both year and month trends spatially
Over space
Total cases between 2007 and 2018 by municipality
Over space and time
Total cases by year (summed over months). Struggling to get this to print bigger

Coarse correlations between predictors and cases
Total Precipitation, each data point is the number of VL cases in a given month, year, and municipality
Broken down by municipality to look for variation in the effects of the predictor over space
Human Population and Municipality Size, each data point is the number of VL cases in a given month, year, and municipality 
Median NDVI, each data point is the number of VL cases in a given month, year, and municipality 
Mean Air Temp, each data point is the number of VL cases in a given month, year, and municipality 
Broken down by municipality to look for variation in the effects of the predictor over space
